Penrod Family

Cheeko had been talking about getting a family picture taken since I took Tim's senior photos last year, but with two kids off to college it took awhile to coordinate this. 2 weeks ago all the kids were coming home and she had been looking at the last family photo they had done when the youngest was around the age of three, so nine years! They were certainly overdue for an update. They were such a loving family for the 45 minute shoot in the rain! Seriously 2 minutes after we started shooting the rain started coming down so it was a bit chaotic no direction at all just shooting hoping for a good result, I think it worked! These Gingers were amazing!

P.S. Molly said something about shooting a bunch of Gingers aka a bunch of red heads (I was not in the know on the red head communities nickname :) and I was confused, imagine that)! Well I throughly enjoy shooting Gingers, they officially rock!



Love the next 2 A LOT!















Fave



Check out the rain, I said even standing in the rain having to hold an umbrella over my head I would take that any day over shooting in a studio, just my style! :)

Lauren + Kevin: Engagement

We did a few downtown and then went to Platte City for some "pretty bridges". I think these pictures really capture their relationship, not that I am a pro because I only spent 2 hours with them but I know they like the outdoors, love to laugh, and love each other!






















Love this one!



and this, you two are adorable!






This wins....fave love Lauren's face.






These two were all giggles and smiles but I did get 1 serious out of them!



Gorgeous!



It had rained the night before and by morning had dried off leaving us a little heart shaped puddle that Lauren was pretty proud of!









Good find Lauren! Ok this photo ties with the jumping one. Man I just do not think I have it in me to pick just one photo, I am just too indecisive!




Birthday Invitations

I blogged awhile back about the kids party at the Red Barn Farm, which was amazing! Well as I was ordering pictures of the last 6 months of my kids lives, I ran across the invitations from the party, and decided to share! I went to Target bought a box of these cute rustic uni-sex cards and designed my own invitations for a whooping $5.99! I am proud of these, can you tell?

Posy: 9 months

I don't just love chunky babies because Posy is no rolly polly,and I definitely love this lady! How can you not with her blue eyes and long lashes, adorable! She is definitely ahead of the curve and has started walking behind a walker, which she loves! I bet it is only a matter of a month before she lets go and is doing it on her own! She is just the sweetest little doll baby, she is always so happy! She is also quite the little swimmer as well Ella and Posy are taking swim lessons at the Platte City pool together, which is super fun! It is more like social hour for me and Audrey but the little ones seem to be loving the water also! Lets just hope that it does not rain tonight!

So for Posy's 9 month shoot Greg & Audrey decided to do a shoot with the grandparents and their favorite granddaughter (she is the only one on both sides so she is extra spoiled I am sure). I love these so much, and I am sure the grandparents and Ms. Posy will cherish these for many years!



So Big! I said I was going to have to go home and work with Ella on this, my lady is currently soaking it all in not to much talking or actions!














Love the lipstick on her cheek! Posy loved mom and dad kissing her but I don't know if she was as fond of the other whiskery men kissing her!






Aunt Kristi bought her a pair of Converse, I think Kristi rocks!






Love the clover, shoes, and tutu...perfection!



From the minute we got there Posy was eyeing up the pool, I think they originally were going to set her on the side of the pool but Posy was not going to have it she was getting in. I think they should have done the whole shoot in the water, these smiles are amazing!



Mom had to hold her by her arms in the pool but Posy did not care she was so excited!
P.S. She can be chubby when she wants to be, look at that chin :)



Next two are my faves it is a toss up, such a gorgeous little girl they have!



Love her eyes...I am a sucker for the blonde-head blue-eyed babies!
